Google posted a support page revealing the reason why Assistant is available in Dark mode only on Android.
Google Assistant is considered by most device users to be the best virtual digital assistant beating out Alexa, Siri, Bixby, and others. But you might have noticed that on Android, Google Assistant is always in Dark mode even if you have your system setting on Light mode. Back in October, Google said that Light mode is no longer available for Assistant on Android.in an attempt to revisit the issue.
The company continues,"To offer a more helpful visual experience across all your devices, including Pixel Watch and Google TV, when you engage with Assistant on mobile Light mode is no longer available - it will now have a dark appearance, even if you have Dark theme turned off in your phone settings."
The bottom line is that you shouldn't expect to see Google Assistant in any other theme other than Dark and if you're not a fan of white text on a black background, you're SOL . As we told you less than a week ago,"Search your screen." This feature allows users to employ Lens to search photos and videos from websites and messaging and video apps.
